Descrição
This plugin provides an easy way to get involved with beta testing WordPress.
Once installed it will enable you to upgrade your website to the latest Nightly, Beta, or Release Candidate at the click of a button using the built in upgrader.
By default once enabled it switches your website onto the point release update channel.
For the more adventurous there is the option to switch to the bleeding edge (trunk) of development.
Don’t forget to backup before you start!
Please enable auto-updates for this plugin to ensure future changes are properly handled with core updates.
Extra Settings
There is a setting to Skip successful autoupdate emails. It functions to disable sending emails to the admin user for successful autoupdates. Only emails indicating failures of the autoupdate process are sent.
The Extra Settings tab may contain choices for testing new features in trunk that require constants to be set. A checked feature will add a constant to the user’s wp-config.php
file in the format as follows:
define( 'WP_BETA_TESTER_{$feature}', true );
Unchecking the feature will remove the constant.
This plugin resets the constants in wp-config.php
on plugin activation and removes them on plugin deactivation. Use the filter wp_beta_tester_config_path
to return a non-standard wp-config.php
file path.
If no settings are present there is no testing to be done that requires this feature.
PRs are welcome on GitHub.
